a new "washington post" abc poll shows president obama with a huge edge among registered voters when asked whom they expect to win the debate. joining me from las vegas is jen saki, traveling press secretary for the obama campaign. >> great to be here. >> hi. good to talk to you from debate camp. >> yes. >> how is the mood out there? is this a walk in the park since "the washington post," the people polled by "the washington post" seems to think the president has this thing knocked. >> well, you know, we don't pay attention to all those polls. look, i think the romney campaign has been clear for months they're going to use this, pull out every zinger in the book to use this as a game changing performance. that's what they think they need, that's what they expect mitt romney to deliver on on wednesday evening. as the president's preparing over the next couple days in lovely las vegas he's looking at it differently. he thinks this is an opportunity to speak directly to the american people as he did at convention about his vision for moving the country forward. that's who our audience i
